Learning about specific coverages of a insurance policy aids in choosing appropriate coverage at the best deductibles and correct limits. Insurance terms can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.
Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance
This coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your Chrysler Town and Country.
Since many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.
Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)
Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.
Comprehensive insurance covers things like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, a broken windshield and fire damage. The most a insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider dropping full coverage.
Collision coverage protection
Collision insurance pays for damage to your Town and Country resulting from a collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision can pay for things such as damaging your car on a curb, crashing into a building, hitting a mailbox and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
Liability auto insurance
Liability insurance can cover damage or injury you incur to a person or their property. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show limits of 50/100/50 which stand for a limit of $50,000 per injured person, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and property damage coverage for $50,000.
Liability coverage protects against claims like attorney fees, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, loss of income, repair costs for stationary objects and court costs. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.
Insurance for medical payments
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for immediate expenses for things like pain medications, EMT expenses, doctor visits, ambulance fees and nursing services. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
When buying insurance coverage, it’s a bad idea to skimp on critical coverages to save a buck or two. There are too many instances where drivers have reduced liability coverage limits and discovered at claim time that it was a big error on their part. Your focus should be to purchase plenty of coverage at an affordable rate while still protecting your assets.

Some insurance providers may not provide online price quotes and usually these small, regional companies provide coverage only through local independent agents.
You just read a lot of tips how to lower your insurance rates. The key concept to understand is the more rate quotes you have, the more likely it is that you will get a better rate. Consumers may even find the most savings is with an unexpected company.
